Biden: ‘I Thought I Could Beat Hillary’

‘I thought I could beat anybody that ran’

BIDEN: "Michael, the only reason I didn’t run had nothing to do with it. I thought I could beat Hillary. I thought I could beat anybody that ran. No one should run for president unless they think they can do that. I didn’t run for one simple overarching reason. My son was dying and he died. That’s just the total reason. I mean, I have great respect for Hillary.  I have great respect for other people who have run, but you don’t make a decision based on the other person. I thought that at the time I was this — the issues the country was facing were right in my wheelhouse. I didn’t run not run — could not run because Hillary was running. I didn’t run because my son is not here. Period."
